    that is how it should be, you shouldn't get dicked around like some companies do.

    That means if you have good review for them then they will get more business.

    The guy who install my gears and lockers was top notch, I have told everybody to go to them cause they know their shit.

    What locker do you have in the rear?

    It will just mean you will need to have the locker present when the gears are set up is all, I believe, unless that locker isn't compatible with that gear set due to size.

    I'm not too sure exactly but I know it's a option that comes with the offroad package. I called this place and they said they could do the 4.88 gears + install for 1100 out the door is that a good price for just rear gear change. They said it would be more difficult because my truck has rear lockers

    Oh so you have the factory E-locker. If you call up East Coast Gear Supply they can do it for like $700-$800, if you buy the assembled diff. All you have to do is put it in which is pretty easy really if you have some basic tools.

    Was that just for the install? or parts and everything? My front locker alone was $900. haha

    Yeah. Cost me $2250 for the set up diffs and front ARB and then I swapped the diffs myself.
